OK, we have a venue (my garage) and some interested Gentoo trialists. As the venue manager I am flexible with dates - almost any Saturday except Easter. Can the helpers (Nick, Chris and others?) set a date?
Can those who want the Gentoo Installation post their PC specs? I recall at our last Gentoo Installfest that we had at least one person who did not know what they were letting themselves in for so I suggest all participants confirm that they are at least moderately Linux competent. Last time Nick amended the Gentoo installation instructions to suit the installfest. I can do the printing again. Any other questions? (or any answers?)

If others can help (servers, expertise etc.) I can be flexible for the date - most Saturdays except Easter. I can supply the garage, the switch and the connection to www (soon to be 256kbs) Regards, Robert Some days you are the bug, some days you are the windscreen. -----Original Message----- From: Don Gould [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 26 March 2004 3:26 p.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Gentoo Installfest When and where?
